Cancer and the Lymphatic System

The lymphatic system is critical to the body's surveillance against cancer. The lymphatic system is one of the most common avenues for the spread of cancer cells throughout the body.

Science and medicine will immeasurably add to our ability to conquer cancer when we learn more about how cancer cells influence the development of new lymphatic vessels and pathways, establishing the route for these cells to spread to other parts of the body. This process known as "lymphangiogenesis" is an emerging focus within the scientific cancer research community.

Infection/HIV and the Lymphatic System

HIV and AIDS are directly connected to the lymphatic system. The ability to effectively control HIV requires increased knowledge of the lymphatics. Continued research will lead to an understanding of how infectious organisms invade the lymphatic system and overcome its normal protective role. Greater understanding of the pathways and physiology of the lymphatics, will also increase our ability to deliver antibiotic and anti-viral medication to infected tissues and organs.

Inflammation, Auto-immunity and the Lymphatic System

Inflammatory and auto-immune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis and systemic lupus erythematosis (SLE), scleroderma, Wegener's granulomatosis, and others are impacted by the lymphatic system.

All of these diseases are believed to be connected to an inflammatory process initiated by the body's immune response. The lymphatic system governs the body's immune system that normally makes the proteins, called antibodies, to protect the body against viruses, bacteria, and other foreign materials.

These foreign materials are called antigens. In an autoimmune disorder such as lupus, or arthritis the immune system looses its ability to tell the difference between foreign substances (antigens) and its own cells and tissues. The immune system then makes antibodies directed against "self".

This was so useful to me. It made me understand how wonderful Kombucha is for our immune system, along with other information:) Kombucha by the way is very bitter.
